Average Customer Rating: 3.5 out of 5

1) Genetics: From Genes to Genomes   [Rating: 3 out of 5]
Great figures to go with the text. Not a quick read, but it is a great genetics resource.

2) Genetics: From Genes to Genomes   [Rating: 2 out of 5]
I found this book extremely verbose and unorganized. It would serve as a great reference book for a lab researcher or grad student. But it's way too technical and dense for an introductory genetics class. The authors do a poor job presenting the material in a comprehensible way to an undergraduate genetics student. Not recommended.

3) Great general Genetics textbook   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I think this is a great text book for General Genetics class! In fact, this is the text we have been using at UC Berkeley. The authors are not only clear & concise in delivering their topics, but also able to formulate challenging questions to test students' undestanding.

4) Genetics concepts well understood   [Rating: 4 out of 5]
Excellent book that goes in depth to the science of genetics.
